Description

Service deployment method, device and system

Technical Field

The present invention relates to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to a service deployment method, device, and system.

Background

In the communication system, service deployment can be completed jointly by a service system and a network system, wherein the service system can transmit a service contract to the network system, and the network system configures a virtual private network (virtual private network, VPN) and a tunnel (tunnel) for the service according to the service contract, performs route calculation, generates a path and activates a network node corresponding to the path, and completes service deployment.

For example, the network system may perform service deployment manually or in a centralized system manner. In the manual mode, service personnel can transmit the service contract to network personnel, and the network personnel perform service configuration according to the service contract and activate corresponding network nodes to complete service deployment. In the centralized system mode, the controllers which are deployed by the network and are independent of the network nodes perform service configuration according to the service contract, and the corresponding network nodes are activated to complete service deployment.

However, in the manual mode, the service deployment is manually performed, so that the service deployment is easy to be misplaced or misplaced, and along with the improvement of the network scale and the service complexity, the manual deployment can reach the critical point of manual management capability soon, and cannot adapt to increasingly complex existing networks. In the centralized system mode, when the controller has a problem, the whole network is paralyzed, in addition, when the network nodes in the network change, the information of the changed network nodes needs to be updated to the controller, the controller carries out route convergence again, the time delay is larger, and the real-time processing efficiency is lower.

Therefore, how to perform service deployment, reduce delay and improve real-time processing efficiency is a urgent problem to be solved.

Detailed Description

Prior to describing embodiments of the present application, technical terms related to the embodiments of the present application will be described.

Service deployment: the method can be completed jointly by a service system and a network system, as shown in fig. 1, the service system can transmit a service contract to the network system, the network system configures a virtual private network (virtual private network, VPN) and a tunnel (tunnel) for the service according to the service contract, and performs route calculation according to resource discovery, generates a path and activates a network node corresponding to the path to complete service deployment. Wherein the service system may comprise a plurality of service nodes and the network system may comprise a plurality of network nodes.

The service contract may include information such as a name of the service, a traffic model of the service, resource information of the service, and the like. The traffic model of the service may include a destination address corresponding to the service, and the resource information of the service may include information such as bandwidth, delay, jitter, etc., and it should be noted that the resource information of the service is an option, that is, the service contract may include the resource information of the service or may not include the resource information of the service.

It should be noted that, the bit field corresponding to the resource information of the service may be included in the bit field corresponding to the service contract, and the bit field may be used to indicate the resource information of the service, and when the service contract does not include the resource information of the service, the bit field may be considered as default.

The tunnel may be a multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) tunnel, a Segment Routing (SR) tunnel, or the like, without limitation.

For example, the network system may perform service deployment manually or in a centralized system manner.

Wherein, the manual work means that no communication channel exists between the service system and the network system, and the communication between people is performed. In the manual mode, service personnel can transmit the service contract to network personnel, and the network personnel perform manual service configuration (such as VPN configuration, tunnel configuration and the like) according to the service contract, and activate corresponding network nodes to complete service deployment.

In the centralized system mode, as shown in fig. 2, a controller independent of the network nodes can be deployed in the network system, and the controller performs service configuration according to the service contract and activates the corresponding network nodes to complete service deployment.

However, in the manual mode, the service system and the network system belong to different management domains, and service deployment is performed manually, so that a certain requirement is required for the skills of configuration personnel, and the configuration personnel are easy to misconfigure or misconfigure. In addition, as shown in fig. 3, with the increase of the network scale and the business complexity, the total amount of information to be managed is increased, and the manual configuration quickly reaches the critical point of manual management capability, so that the system cannot adapt to the increasingly complex existing network.

In the centralized system mode, the deployment mode of the controller can improve the automation degree, but the controller can only determine a path for the service according to the resource information of the service, and when the path resource does not meet the resource information of the service, the service deployment fails. In addition, when a problem occurs in the controller, the whole network is paralyzed. When the network node in the network changes, the information of the changed network node needs to be updated to the controller, and the controller carries out route convergence again, so that the time delay is larger, and the real-time processing efficiency is lower.

In order to solve the problem, an embodiment of the present application provides a service deployment method, which may include: the edge network node receives first service information from the service node; the first service information comprises a service name and a service flow model, and the service flow model comprises a service destination address; the edge network node determines whether a first path exists according to the first service information; the destination address of the first path is the destination address of the service; if the first path exists, the edge network node configures a virtual private network VPN and a tunnel for the network node corresponding to the first path; the edge network node sends first indication information to the service node, wherein the first indication information is used for indicating that service deployment is successful.

In the embodiment of the application, the edge network node can automatically find the first path according to the first service information sent by the service node, and configure the VPN and the tunnel for the network node according to the found first path, and the edge network node can also send the first indication information for indicating successful service deployment to the service node after the service deployment is successful, so that the complexity of manual configuration is reduced, the service deployment efficiency and the success rate are improved, and a control closed loop is formed at the node level. Meanwhile, the whole network paralysis caused by the controller fault can be avoided, when the network node changes, the edge network node can carry out route convergence, the time delay is reduced, and the real-time processing efficiency is improved.

The following describes embodiments of the present application in detail with reference to the drawings.

The first service information may include a name of a service and a traffic model of the service, and the traffic model of the service may include a destination address of the service.

For example, taking the name of the service as a private line a and the destination address of the service as 192.168.1.22 as an example, the service node may send the private lines a and 192.168.1.22 as first service information to the edge network node, and the edge network node starts service deployment according to the first service information.

Optionally, the service node sends the first service information to the edge network node with the first service information carried in Grasp signaling.

Step 602, the edge network node determines whether a first path exists according to the first service information. If present, the following steps 603 and 604 are performed, and if not present, the following step 605 is performed.

The destination address of the first path may be a destination address of the service.

Illustratively, the edge network node may determine, based on the destination address of the traffic, whether a path exists in the network system that can reach the destination address of the traffic, and if so, determine the path as the first path.

For example, the edge network node may discover whether an reachable path exists according to a routing table pre-stored by the edge network node, and if so, determine the reachable path as the first path.

Step 603, if the first path exists, the edge network node configures VPN and tunnel for the network node corresponding to the first path.

The edge network node can automatically generate VPN according to the traffic model of the service, and configures VPN and tunnel for the network node corresponding to the first path according to the discovered first path.

Step 604, the edge network node sends first indication information to the service node. Correspondingly, the service node receives first indication information from the edge network node.

The first indication information may be used to indicate that the service deployment is successful.

Specifically, the edge network node may send first indication information to the service node after the service deployment is successful, and the service node determines that the service deployment is successful according to the first indication information, thereby ending the service deployment flow.

Optionally, the service node may set the service deployment status to be successful according to the first indication information.

Step 605, if the first path does not exist, the edge network node sends second indication information to the service node. Correspondingly, the service node receives second indication information from the edge network node.

The second indication information may be used to indicate that the service deployment fails.

Specifically, when the first path is not found, the edge network node determines that service deployment fails, and sends second indication information to the service node, and the service node determines that service deployment fails according to the second indication information, so as to end the service deployment flow.

Optionally, the service node may set the service deployment status to fail according to the second indication information.

Based on the method shown in fig. 6, as shown in fig. 3, the edge network node can automatically find a first path according to the first service information sent by the service node, and configure VPN and tunnel for the network node according to the found first path, and the edge network node can also send first indication information for indicating successful service deployment to the service node after successful service deployment, so that the complexity of manual configuration can be reduced, the complexity of the whole network and the complexity of the network node can be reduced, the service deployment efficiency and success rate can be improved, and a management and control closed loop can be formed at the node level. Meanwhile, the whole network paralysis caused by the controller fault can be avoided, when the network node changes, the edge network node can carry out route convergence, the time delay is reduced, and the real-time processing efficiency is improved.

Corresponding to the service deployment scenario without resource requirements shown in fig. 6, the service deployment method provided in the embodiment of the present application may also be applied to a service deployment scenario with resource requirements (for example, a service deployment scenario of Deterministic IP (DIP)), as shown in fig. 7, where the method may include:

step 701, the service node sends first service information to an edge network node. Correspondingly, the edge network node receives the first service information from the service node.

The first service information includes a service name, a service flow model and first resource information of the service, and the service flow model may include a service destination address.

For example, taking the name of the service as a private line a, the destination address of the service as 192.168.1.22, the first resource information of the service as 100Mpbs, and the time delay of 10ms as an example, the service node may send the private line a, 192.168.1.22, 100Mpbs, and the time delay of 10ms as the first service information to the edge network node, and the edge network node starts service deployment according to the first service information.

Step 702, the edge network node determines whether a first path exists according to the first service information. If present, the following steps 703 to 711 are performed, and if not present, the following step 712 is performed.

In step 703, if the first path exists, the edge network node determines whether the resource information corresponding to the first path satisfies the first resource information of the service. If yes, the following steps 704 and 705 are performed, and if not, the following steps 706 to 710 are performed, or the following step 711 is performed.

The edge network node may determine whether the resource information corresponding to the first path meets the first resource information of the service according to the found resource information corresponding to the first path and the first resource information of the service.

For example, taking 50Mpbs and 10ms as the resource information corresponding to the first path and 100Mpbs and 10ms as the first resource information of the service as an example, the edge network node may determine that the resource information corresponding to the first path does not satisfy the first resource information of the service.

For example, taking the resource information corresponding to the first path as 100Mpbs and 10ms, and the first resource information of the service as 100Mpbs and 10ms as an example, the edge network node may determine that the resource information corresponding to the first path satisfies the first resource information of the service.

Step 704, when the resource information corresponding to the first path satisfies the first resource information of the service, the edge network node configures VPN and tunnel for the network node corresponding to the first path.

Step 705, the edge network node sends first indication information to the service node. Correspondingly, the service node receives first indication information from the edge network node.

In step 706, when the resource information corresponding to the first path does not meet the first resource information of the service, the edge network node sends the resource information corresponding to the first path to the service node. Correspondingly, the service node receives resource information corresponding to the first path from the edge network node.

When the resource information corresponding to the first path does not meet the first resource information of the service, the edge network node may record the resource information corresponding to the first path and send the resource information of the first path to the service node.

For example, taking 50 Mbs and 10ms as the resource information corresponding to the first path, and 100 Mbs and 10ms as the first resource information of the service as examples, the edge network node may determine that the resource information corresponding to the first path does not satisfy the first resource information of the service, and the edge network node may send 50 Mbs and 10ms as the resource information corresponding to the first path to the service node.

Step 707, the service node adjusts the first resource information of the service according to the resource information corresponding to the first path, and obtains the second resource information.

The service node may adjust the first resource information of the service to resource information adapted to the resource information of the first path, such as the second resource information, according to the resource information corresponding to the first path.

For example, taking the resource information corresponding to the first path as 50Mpbs and 10ms, and the first resource information of the service as 100Mpbs and 10ms as an example, the service node may adjust the first resource information to the second resource information, and the second resource information may be 50Mpbs and 10ms.

It should be noted that, if the service node determines that the first resource information of the service cannot be adjusted, the service node may directly end the service deployment flow and set the service deployment state as failure.

Step 708, the service node sends the second service information to the edge network node.

The second service information may include a name of the service, a traffic model of the service, and second resource information of the service.

Step 709, when the resource information of the first path meets the second resource information of the service, the edge network node configures VPN and tunnel for the network node corresponding to the first path.

Step 710, the edge network node sends first indication information to the service node. Correspondingly, the service node receives first indication information from the edge network node.

Step 711, if the first path exists, when the resource information corresponding to the first path does not meet the first resource information of the service, the edge network node sends second indication information to the service node. Correspondingly, the service node receives second indication information from the edge network node.

It should be noted that, step 711 and steps 706 to 710 may be used independently or in combination, that is, when there is a first path, but the resource information corresponding to the first path does not satisfy the first resource information of the service, the edge network node may execute step 711 to send second indication information to the service node, to indicate that service deployment of the service node fails, and the service node ends the service deployment flow according to the second indication information. The edge network node may also perform the steps 706 to 710, send the resource information corresponding to the first path to the service node, adjust the first resource information of the service according to the resource information corresponding to the first path, obtain the second resource information of the service, and perform service deployment according to the second resource information of the service. The edge network node may further perform step 711 when the step 706 is performed, that is, the edge network node sends resource information and second indication information corresponding to the first path to the service node, the service node determines that the first service deployment fails according to the second indication information, and the service node may further adjust the first resource information of the service according to the resource information corresponding to the first path to obtain second resource information of the service, and send the second resource information of the service to the edge network node, where the edge network node performs the second service deployment according to the second resource information of the service.

Step 712, if the first path does not exist, the edge network node sends second indication information to the service node, where the second indication information is used to indicate that service deployment fails.

In the embodiment of the application, when the edge network node discovers that the resource information of the first path cannot meet the first resource information of the service, but the first path has available resources, the edge network node can record the resource information of the first path and send the resource information of the first path to the service node, and the service node can adjust the first resource information of the service according to the resource information of the first path to obtain the second resource information, thereby bringing a second negotiation opportunity to service deployment, flexibly adapting network resources, avoiding network resources from being idle, improving the success rate and deployment efficiency of service deployment, and improving the utilization rate of the network resources.
